Not The Best 24 hours But The Subtitles Have Gone 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼



 So this hasn’t been the best 24 hours as far as Nix is concerned. Last night was a bit of a disaster with the new medication. Nix gave it to me as prescribed just as it was getting dark. Two hours later about 9 pm I woke up and I felt very wobbly indeed. I staggered into the lounge with my back legs not working very well. As you know, my back legs are very weak anyway but that silly tablet made them go like jelly. Nix was very upset and she sat with me for a bit and then I went back to bed and went straight to sleep. Nix went to bed about 10.30pm and guess what, I woke her up again at 1:30am wanting to go out🫢 Nix has decided she won’t give me the meds again, they didn’t work for me and made my back legs wobble and she says she doesn’t mind sleeping with the door open.  She did think about giving them to me later but then if I woke up wobbly when she was asleep I might fall over and not be able to get up. Anyone in the UK using Xanax 0.5mg, we have some you can have.



The Sky engineer arrived this morning and he was very polite unlike the last one. Nix turned the TV on and guess what, the subtitles that have been continually on screen had disappeared. The Sky man was laughing and said it happens a lot.  Nix told him she’d had to switch them off every time she changed channel but not sure if he believed her. He did an update on her TV though and fixed something on the bedroom TV that had been a problem so hopefully all is well. Nix does have a habit of rewinding a programme if she missed a particular line and putting the subtitles on. She then straightaway turns them off again. He said it’s one of the things the subtitles don’t like, being changed without leaving a little time in between. We’ll have to see how it goes.



To make up for having to get up so early we had a lovely walk in Buckingham Park but Nix left her phone at home so we don’t have any photos from there so she has chosen a couple from a while ago. 




Nix moved my bed from the lounge into the other room so the Sky man had plenty of room so I had a choice of beds…I like that 😴

    I am sorry to hear the Xanax did not help you but glad you won't be taking it. As for the subtitles on the TV, I have had the same problem!! I hope all is fixed now. Sleep well tonite, love you Fripp. xx

Everything You Wanted to Know About Fripp

Image
My name is Fripp aka The Fripster, I am a Bearded Collie and I came to live with Nix when I was two years old.  I spent the first two years of my life living in Monaco but my owners couldn’t keep me because they were working long hours. Even though Nix lives in the UK she saw me and wanted me, naturally, and so my breeder brought me to the UK when she was visiting Crufts. Nix says she had no idea what she was letting herself in for and if I hadn’t come all the way from France she’d have sent me straight back the next day. She said I was completely untrained, tried to kill the cat and had separation anxiety so bad I would knock her over rather than let her get to the front door. None of this is true of course.  Nix and I have lived in perfect harmony for the last eight years even though she might say different. I got very sick when I was seven with an autoimmune disease called IMTP but I recovered from that even though I was bald for a while. Then a year later I ended up in hospital wit

Too Much Noisy Rain

Image
 Last night it started to rain, a lot, and as you know I do not like it when it rains, it scares me. I don’t mind it when I’m out on my walk as you can see from my photos but I don’t like it when I’m inside. I just couldn’t help myself, I had to get off the bed and start digging. Nix was very understanding for once but she does try to get me back on the bed. In the end I gave up and got on the bed and was just drifting off when there was this really loud scary noise. Nix said it sounded like a very loud demented dalek whatever that is...it was very scary and made me and Nix really jump. Turned out to be something to do with her phone and the battery going...is it too much to ask that she keep a check on these things, nearly gave me a heart attack.  It hasn’t stopped raining all day so there are only photos of me wet. I didn’t stay wet for long, I blotted myself off on the sofa first and then Nix’s bed. She thought there were towels on it but I’d dug them all up. The best news today is

Apparently I’m Always in the Way

Image
So Nix doesn’t understand why I am always behind her, she said it’s starting to annoy her apart from being very dangerous. She says if she falls over me and breaks her hip who’s going to look after me. Have you seen her hips, it’d take a sledgehammer to break one of those. Anyway she keeps saying there’s only one way out of the bungalow so I don’t need to follow her around everywhere. That’s not strictly true because there are doors at the back and a door at the side. She could escape without me through any of those...I must be vigilant at all times. So now she has settled down to finish getting my blog into print and it really is painful to watch. She says it takes twelve taps on the iPad to add one photograph on one day of the blog. She also says if there are thirty days in the month that will take her 360 taps. She’s got six months left to do... I shouldn’t hold your breath for this blog if I was you.  There will of course be a quicker way to do it which she will discover next year
